Gros Ventre Campground — Grand Teton National Park
Jackson, Wyoming · 317 campsites
Illustrative landscape
Gros Ventre Campground is the largest campground in Grand Teton National Park, set along the Gros Ventre River in a mix of cottonwood groves and open sagebrush flats rather than right beneath the Teton skyline. That lower-key setting means it tends to fill up later in the day than the park's more scenic lakeside campgrounds, and its location near Kelly and close to the town of Jackson makes it convenient for supply runs. Elk and other wildlife are frequently seen moving through the river bottom, especially during the fall rut.
